Of all places, RADIO SHACK has these thermal fuses in those new parts
drawers in what's left of the parts department. A buck or two....buy
two and have a spare you can't ever find again.
What the hell has happened to Radio Shack, anyway? Half the time I
can't find spade connectors and dipole antennas...I end up going to a
surplus place with filthy metal shelves and plenty of attitude...and a
highly skilled staff I wouldn't trade for the world.
Now, if I want a crappy boom box and a strip of AA batts, the Shack is
convenient. But it's a pale shadow of the place I half-lived in as a
teenager. The more I sail, the more I hate the throwaway society I was
raised in and the more I prefer to fix stuff myself...but a man needs
parts and does not live by solder alone!
Rant over, good night.
